2018 Honda Civic Type R: FWD CVT!!!

Yes! CVT will come to the all new Civic R next year.

These are blasphemous words (or letters) for many sports cars fans. I know.

I am not a fan at all of the R type anyway (The pic above is just the concept)
Small cars with huge wings, skirts, black wheels and tons of holes everywhere are not my thing.

But this looks like a let down for many. Not only will it be getting a CVT, it is apparently still just FWD. Not AWD like most of its competition.

Just imagine, 340HP with front wheel drive. Sounds like a nightmare to me...
